A mother has three sons namely benson, daniel and ejiro. The mother is 4 times as her second son and benson is 6 years older than daniel. If the three son are in the ratio age of 5:3:2 respectively. Ejiro is 2/3 of daniel age
a) What is daniel age
b) Determine the age of the mother when her first child was born

The big problem was that the ancient Greeks used Geometry as the basis of math, not algebra. This slowed the development by about 2000 years. =============================d
I do not believe this is your real question. I think you are really asking --- What if no one had ever invented calculus? ---- Calculus makes some calculations in math easier, but before calc there were approximations made for those. Could we have sent astronauts to the moon without calculus?? YES. Very little would be different in life now if calc were still undiscovered.
